My wife works at a school in Connecticut, they had police officers come in and brief the staff on the situation yesterday so she went into panic mode. Decided to keep our son home from school today because of it so I'll be dragging him out fishing with me instead.

Yes, but I don't bother keeping them. Aiden did manage to land one finally, his first ever Atlantic salmon! Followed it up with a chunky rainbow, too.

I BELIEVE SOCIAL MEDIA SITES LIKE TWITTER AND TICTOC ARE BEING ABUSED TO THE POINT WHERE THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF MANDITORY POLICING.

The other issue is a story likes this comes out and all the kids start texting each other promoting conspiracies. Looks like this was just some sicko hoax but it wouldn't take much to activate a real crazy.
